ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) -- A Conservative Party candidate has withdrawn his concession in a close special election for a U.S. House seat, and New York election officials are beginning to count paper ballots.

Doug Hoffman made the announcement that he's ''unconceding'' on Glenn Beck's national radio show Monday.

Hoffman's spokesman, Rob Ryan, says that the campaign is looking at the remaining military, absentee and paper ballots. Counting the more than 10,000 paper ballots could take days.

Democrat Bill Owens was sworn into Congress after he was declared the winner of the Nov. 3 election. The latest results show him ahead by about 3,000 votes.

The race exposed a schism in the Republican Party with national figures backing Hoffman over the GOP nominee.





Hope this drags on for months. More Loones more reminders that the GOP is loony.

1. I can't wait until he

un unconcedes.

[Kdillard]

2. He is still going to lose.

3. Was posted yesterday. n/t

4. Hoffman would have to get 7 out of every 10 ballots to win. Not happening.

5. Since Owens have been sworn in

they can count all the want to . Remember Gore in Florida. They stopped counting the ballots after he conceded. AND they said since bush had been sworn in, no matter if Gore was the winner or not, Bush was the president. So goes for Hoffman. But do you in your wildest dreams think the majority of military would vote for an a** like Hoffman who didn't even live in the district.

7. Don't forget the Hypocritical Factor. While what you said applied to Gore,

it does not apply in this instance.

It's the same as the Republicans worrying about increasing the deficit, yet in years past they didn't care about then when voting for war funding in Iraq, or when voting to cut taxes on the nation's wealthiest people, which has resulted in $2.5 trillion added to the deficit!

What's good for them isn't for everyone else.

So, in this case they will expect Owens to step down, and let Hoffman take his seat. Not living in the district isn't an issue for Hoffman, but it would be if Owens didn't live there.

Hypocritical Factor: applies to GOP, not to Democrats. :puke:

:sarcasm:

6. Not breaking today -- Rachel Maddow reported on it last night.

He's sure the military ballots will give it to him -- even though they went out before the Republican dropped out and when he was still a minor candidate.

Of course, if the ballot counting fix is in ......

8. SO the AP follow Beck but not Maddow? WTF?

[quiller4]

12. and today he un unconceded after the counting of absentee

ballots weren't going his way.

9. Great News

Now this fuckwad can humiliate himself all over again!

[C_U_L8R]

10. A real two time loser

just like the rest of those stinkers

[Raine1967]

11. Is "unconceding" like "unpulling" out?

Seriously -- Owens was sworn in --- This is like saying you didn't lose the superbowl 3 weeks after the fact --

As in Football, you can't challenge the play three down down the line. Epic FAIL.
